ADDENDUMAddendum to Statement of Additional Information of Invesco Mutual Fund and Scheme Information Documents (SIDs) / Key Information Memorandums (KIMs) of the Scheme(s) of Invesco Mutual FundInvestors/Unit holders are advised to take note that Invesco Trustee Pvt. Ltd. (‘the Trustee to Invesco Mutual Fund’) has decided to carry out following changes to the Statement of Additional Information (‘SAI’) of Invesco Mutual Fund and Scheme Information Document(s) (‘SIDs’) and Key Information Memorandum(s) (‘KIMs’) of the Scheme(s) of Invesco Mutual Fund (‘the Fund’), as applicable.1. Changes pursuant to Introduction of Tri-party Repo in place of Collateralized Borrowing and Lending Obligation (CBLO) In terms of Repurchase Transactions (Repo) (Reserve Bank) Directions 2018 issued by Reserve Bank of India (RBI) vide notification reference no. RBI/2018-19/24-FMRD.

DIRD.01/14.03.038/2018-19 dated July 24, 2018 and notification issued by Clearing Corporation of India Ltd. (‘CCIL’) vide notification no. CCIL/L&S/18/114 dated October 29, 2018, CCIL has started acting as a Triparty Repo Agent and has introduced clearing and settlement services for Tri-party Repo trades in Government Securities under its Securities segment with effect from November 5, 2018. Accordingly, CCIL has discontinued the segment for Collateralized Borrowing and Lending Obligations (‘CBLO’) and replaced it with Tri-party Repo.

In view of the above:a. All references to CBLO is replaced with Tri-Party Repo in SIDs and KIMs of Scheme(s) of the Fund.b. The following definition is inserted under section ‘I - Introduction’, under sub-section ‘E - Definitions’ ‘Tri-party Repo means a repo contract where a third entity (apart from the borrower and lender), called a Tri-party Agent, acts as an intermediary between the two parties to the

repo to facilitate services like collateral selection, payment and settlement, custody and management during the life of the transaction.’c. Further, upon addition of Tri-party Repo as an investible avenue, the following Risk factor has been added under the heading ‘Scheme Specific Risk Factors’ under section

‘I - Introduction’ of the SIDs: Risk Factor associated with investing in Securities Segment and Tri-party Repo trade settlement: Clearing Corporation of India Ltd. (‘CCIL’) is providing clearing and settlement services, for Triparty Repo trades in Government Securities, under its Securities Segment. CCIL

would act as a Central Counterparty to all the borrow and lend Triparty Repo trades received by it for settlement. CCIL would also be performing the role responsibilities of Triparty Repo Agent, in terms of Repurchase transactions (Repo) (Reserve Bank) Directions, 2018 as amended from time to time. CCIL would settle the Triparty Repo trades, in terms of its Securities Segment Regulations.

The funds settlement of members is achieved by multilateral netting of the funds position in Triparty Repo with the funds position in Outright and Market Repo and settling in the books of RBI for members who maintain an RBI Current Account. In respect of other members, funds settlement is achieved in the books of Settlement Bank. Securities settlement for Triparty Repo trades shall be achieved in the Gilt Account of the Member maintained with CCIL. Securities obligation for outright and market repo trades shall be settled in the SGL / CSGL account of the Member with RBI.

Invesco Mutual Fund is a member of securities segment and Tri-party Repo trade settlement of the CCIL. Since all transactions of the mutual fund in government securities and in Tri-party Repo trades are settled centrally through the infrastructure and settlement systems provided by CCIL, it reduces the settlement and counterparty risks considerably for transactions in the said segments.

To mitigate the potential losses arising in case any member defaults in settling the transactions routed through CCIL, CCIL maintains a Default Fund. CCIL shall maintain two separate Default Funds in respect of its securities segment, one to meet the losses airing out of any default by its members from outright and repo trades and other for meeting losses arising out of any default by its members from Triparty Repo trades.

In case any clearing member fails to honor his settlement obligations, the Default Fund is utilized to complete the settlement applying the Default Waterfall Sequence. As per the said waterfall mechanism, after the defaulter’s margins and defaulter’s contribution to default fund have been appropriated, CCIL’s contribution is used to meet the losses. Post utilization of CCIL’s contribution, if there is still a loss to be met, then contribution of non-defaulting members to Default Fund is utilized to meet the said loss.

The Scheme is subject to the risk of losing initial margin and contribution to Default Fund in the event of failure of any settlement obligation. Further the Scheme’s contribution is allowed to be used to meet the residual loss in case of default by the other clearing member (the defaulting member).

Further, CCIL periodically prescribes a list of securities eligible for contribution as collaterals by members. Presently, all Central Government Securities and Treasury Bills are accepted as collaterals by CCIL. The above risk factor may undergo a change in case the CCIL notifies securities other than Government of India Securities as eligible for contributions as collateral.

2. Change in name of the Registrar and Transfer Agent of Invesco Mutual Fund Pursuant to the ‘Composite Scheme of Arrangement and Amalgamation’ whereby Karvy Computershare Private Limited has amalgamated into Karvy Fintech Private Limited, the name of the

Registrar and Transfer Agent of Invesco Mutual Fund (‘the Fund’) has changed from ‘Karvy Computershare Private Limited’ to ‘Karvy Fintech Private Limited’ with effect from November 17, 2018. In view of the above, all references to Karvy Computershare Private Limited shall be replaced with Karvy Fintech Private Limited in SAI, SIDs and KIMs of the Scheme(s) of the Fund. Pursuant to above, necessary changes will be carried out at relevant places in SAI, SIDs and KIMs of the Scheme(s) of the Fund, as applicable. All other terms & conditions of SAI, SIDs and KIMs of the Scheme(s) of the Fund will remain unchanged. This addendum forms an integral part of Statement of Additional Information, Scheme Information Document(s) and Key Information Memorandum(s) of the Scheme(s) of Invesco

Mutual Fund as amended from time to time.

The requisite form for registration of multiple bank accounts, registration of a default bank account and deletion of registered bank accounts (Multiple Bank Accounts Registration Form) is available on our website www. invescomutualfund.com.


The registered bank account details will also be used by AMC/ the Fund/ Registrar to ensure that the Third Party Payments are not made for subscription to units of schemes of Invesco Mutual Fund.

Note: In case of units held in electronic (demat) mode, the bank details as registered in records of the Depository will be final and will be used for credit of dividend and redemption proceeds. Any change in bank details should be communicated to Depository Participants and unit holder will be required to comply with the requirements specified by Depository (ies) in this regard from time to time.

2) Registration of Multiple Bank Accounts:

Investor should fill Part A of Multiple Bank Accounts Registration Form along with any one of the following documents to register bank mandate(s).

3) Registration of a Default Bank Account:

(a) Investor should fill Part B of Multiple Bank Accounts Registration Form to register one of the registered bank accounts as the default bank account for credit of redemption and dividend proceeds. However, the investor may specify any other registered bank accounts for credit of redemption proceeds at the time of requesting for the redemption, which would be applicable for specific redemption and default bank account will not be changed.

(b) In case of existing investors, the existing bank mandate will be treated as default bank account till the investor gives a separate request to change the same to any of other registered bank account.

(c) In case of new investors, the bank account mentioned on the purchase application form, used for opening the folio will be treated as default bank account till the investor gives a separate request to change the same to any of other registered bank account.

4) Registration of Bank Account Details for new Folio Creation:

If the cheque submitted along with the application form for subscription under a new folio is drawn on bank account (pay-in Bank Account) which is different from pay-out bank account details (i.e. bank account for receipt of redemption / dividend proceeds) as mentioned in the application form, then it would be mandatory for the investor to submit below mentioned documentary proof:

(b) Any request received for change in Bank details which forms part of financial transaction request is liable to be rejected. In such cases, only the financial transaction will be processed. e.g. in case of redemption request with request for change in Bank details, only the redemption request will be processed and proceeds shall be credited to the registered (old) Bank Account without considering the change of Bank details request submitted in the same redemption request.

(c) Any unregistered bank account or a new bank account forming part of redemption request will not be entertained or processed.

(d) In case of change of registered bank mandate, there will be ‘cooling period’ of not more than 10 calendar days for registration and validation of new bank account.

V. INVESTMENT VALUATION NORMS FOR SECURITIES AND OTHER ASSETS

1. Introduction:

The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) has outlined investment valuation norms and accounting policies under SEBI (Mutual Funds) Regulations, 1996 as amended from time to time. The Investment Valuation Norms are defined in the Eighth Schedule of the Regulations (regulation 47) and circulars issued by SEBI from time to time.

SEBI vide its Gazette Notification No. LAD-NRO/GN/2011-12/38/4290 dated February 21, 2012 has introduced Principles of Fair Valuation in Eighth Schedule of the SEBI (Mutual Funds) Regulations, 1996 by amending Investment Valuation norms. SEBI has directed that a Mutual fund should value its investments in a manner so as to reflect realizable value of the securities / assets and to ensure fair treatment to all investors including existing investors as well as investors seeking to purchase or redeem units of mutual funds in all schemes at all points of time.

Further, AMFI has issued best practice circular no.135/BP/29/2012-13 dated May 15, 2012 on valuation methodology for valuing Debt and Money Market instruments, providing guiding principle for valuation.

prescribe the methodology and the manner in which securities and assets held by the schemes of Invesco Mutual Fund should be valued;

ensure that securities / assets are valued accurately and consistently as per approved methodology;

lay down the process to deal with exceptional circumstances;


address the instances of conflict of interest, if any;

set a process to detect and prevent incorrect valuation.

Thus, the primary objective is to value investments in a manner so as to reflect realizable value of the securities / assets and to ensure fair treatment to all investors including existing investors as well as investors seeking to purchase or redeem units of Invesco Mutual Fund in all schemes.

ii. Natural disasters or public disturbances that force the markets to close unexpectedly;

iii. Significant volatility in the capital / currency / debt markets;

iv. Liquidity stress in the system;

v. War;

vi. Other external factors which may be defined by the Valuation Committee from time to time.

Considering the exceptional nature of events, it is not possible to cover all the potential exceptional events above and to define a standard methodology to be adopted for fair valuation of securities for such events. The Board of AMC and Trustee authorized the Valuation Committee to determine the exceptional events and the process to deal with the same, under guidance of Board of AMC and Trustee, wherever required / possible and get the same ratified subsequently.

5. Deviation from the policy, if any:

AMC will strictly adhere to the valuation norms stated hereunder, however, the Valuation Committee is authorized to approve deviation from the policy, if any, only for the purpose of ensuring true, fair & correct valuation of referred security. Such deviation shall be reported to the Board of AMC & Trustees and disclosed to Investors appropriately on the AMC’s website (www.invescomutualfund.com) and / or any other means of communication as may be decided by the AMC.

6. Conflict of interest:

In case, any instance of conflict of interest arises, the same shall be referred to the Valuation Committee. The Valuation Committee shall review the same and address the issue of conflict of interest in such manner so as to ensure fair treatment to all investors in the schemes of Invesco Mutual Fund.

7. Record Maintenance:

The rationale for valuation including inter scheme transfers shall be maintained and preserved to enable audit trail for a period as per regulation 50 of SEBI (Mutual Funds) Regulations, 1996 i.e. currently eight years.

If a security is not traded on any stock exchange on a particular valuation day, the value at which it was traded on the selected stock exchange or any other stock exchange, as the case may be, on the earliest previous day may be used, provided such date is not more than thirty days prior to valuation date. In case of preference share and CCPS, in case the same are not traded for more than 30 days, the same shall be valued in good faith by AMC depending on the type of preference share and appropriate Illiquidity discount can be given.

The selected Stock exchange would be National Stock Exchange (NSE). If a security is not traded on NSE, the price on Bombay Stock

Exchange (BSE) would be considered.

2 Non-traded / Thinly traded Equity and Equity Related Securities (Including Redeemable Preference shares and Cumulative Convertible Preference Share (CCPS), Partly Paid-up Equity Shares)

Thinly traded equity/equity related security is defined as, when trading in an equity/equity related security (such as convertible debentures, equity warrants, etc.) in a month is both less than Rs. 5 lacs and the total volume is less than 50,000 shares. Securities shall be valued in `good faith’ on the basis of the valuation procedure laid down by the Valuation Committee.In case security is not traded for 30 days the same shall be valued as below:(a) Based on the latest available Balance Sheet, net worth shall be calculated as follows:(b) Net Worth per share = [share capital+ reserves (excluding revaluation reserves) – Misc. expenditure and Debit Balance in P&L

A/c] Divided by No. of Paid up Shares.(c) Average capitalization rate (P/E ratio) for the industry based upon either BSE or NSE data (which should be followed consistently

and changes, if any noted with proper justification thereof) shall be taken and discounted by 75% i.e. only 25% of the Industry average P/E shall be taken as capitalization rate (P/E ratio). Earnings per share (EPS) of the latest audited annual accounts will be considered for this purpose.

(d) The value as per the net worth value per share and the capital earning value calculated as above shall be averaged and further discounted by 10% for ill-liquidity so as to arrive at the fair value per share.

(e) In case the EPS is negative, EPS value for that year shall be taken as zero for arriving at capitalized earning.(f) In case where the latest balance sheet of the company is not available within nine months from the close of the year, unless the

consistently and changes, if any noted with proper justification thereof) shall be taken and discounted by 75% i.e. only 25% of the Industry average P/E shall be taken as capitalization rate (P/E ratio). Earnings per share (EPS) of the latest audited annual accounts will be considered for this purpose.

8 Equity shares invested as an Anchor investor:

At the discretion of the AMC and with the approval of the valuation committee, post listing all equity shares invested on Anchor basis may be valued at a price lower than the listed market price available on NSE/BSE by applying a suitable illiquidity discount (If in Lock in).

9 Shares on De-merger and Other Corporate Action Events

Both the shares are traded immediately on de-merger: In this case both the shares are valued at respective traded prices. Shares of only one company continued to be traded on de-merger: In such a scenario, the shares of Non Traded/Unlisted would be fairly valued in good faith by AMC on case to case basis. Traded share shall be valued at traded price.Both the shares are not traded on de-merger: In such a scenario, the shares of both the companies would be fairly valued in good faith by AMC on case to case basis. In case of any other type of capital corporate action event, the same shall be valued at fair price on case to case basis.

B. Debt and Money market securities:

1 For securities with residual maturity

> 60 days: (including, Government Securities/ State Government Securities (SDL)/ T Bills/ Cash Management Bills)

Debt securities, including Bills rediscounting will be valued at average of the prices provided by Association of Mutual Funds in India (AMFI) designated agencies viz. presently CRISIL & ICRA.

If security level price for New security purchased (primary allotment or secondary market) is not available from AMFI designated agencies viz. presently CRISIL & ICRA, the valuation of such securities shall be done at the weighted average clean price / weighted average yield of all the purchases made by Invesco Mutual Fund on the day of purchase.

The prices received from CRISIL and ICRA shall be ignored during the notice period of a security which has either a Put or Call option. The notice period will begin from the date of exercise of the option (notice date) till the put or call date and the price will be amortized from the exercise date till the date of put or call.

In abnormal situations, market disruptions etc. where current market information may not be obtainable and in case CRISIL and ICRA are unable to provide a security level price for any security on particular day(s), the fund manager(s) will, with the prior approval of Valuation Committee, value the securities appropriately to ensure true and fair valuation.

2 For securities having residual maturity

<= 60 days (including Government Securities/ State Government Securities (SDL)/ T Bills/ Cash Management Bills / Interest rate Swaps)

Debt Securities, including Bills rediscounting will be amortized on straight line basis to maturity from cost or last valuation price, whichever is more recent.

The amortized price can be used for valuation, as long as their valuation remains within ±0.10% band of the reference price (i.e. the price derived from the reference yield provided by agency(ies) appointed by AMFI). In case the variance falls outside the above band, the valuation shall be adjusted in order to bring it within ±0.10% band.

At the time of first purchase, the spread between the purchase yield and the benchmark yield, as provided by the AMFI designated agency(ies) will be fixed. The addition of this spread to the benchmark yield will provide the reference yield. Further, Whenever a security moves from 61 days residual maturity to 60 days residual maturity, the price as on 61st day would be used for amortization from 60th day and the amortized yield as on 60th day would be used for comparing with reference yield as of 60th day and the spread would be fixed based on the difference between amortized yield and reference yield. This spread will remain fixed through the life of the instrument & will be changed only after providing the justification for the change for example, in case of subsequent trade in the same security by the AMC, such spread shall be adopted as long as the trade is of market lot (Rs. 5 crores and above).

In case of subsequent trades in the same security by the AMC, valuation will reflect the amortisation using the weighted average traded price provided the AMC trade in the scheme is of market lot (i.e. Rs. 5 crores and above) and such amortized price arrived is in line with ±0.10% band of the reference price as defined above.

The spread can also be changed after prior approval of the Chief Executive Officer (CEO), in case of change in the credit rating or credit profile of the issuer which would require a re-evaluation to reflect appropriate spread.

3 Inter-scheme

Transfer (IST)

IST would be at the price derived from the weighted average yield / price of traded securities at the time of the IST:For instruments maturing above 1 year:The weighted average yield / price of traded securities (excluding inter scheme transfers of others) will be considered if there are at least two trades aggregating to Rs. 25 crores or more for same or similar security on a public platform*; or Trades of the AMC of minimum Rs. 5 crores face value.For instruments maturing below 1 year:The weighted average yield / price of traded securities (excluding inter scheme transfers of others) will be taken if there are at least three trades, with each trade being of a minimum Rs. 25 crores face value, aggregating to Rs. 100 crores or more for same or similar security on a public platform*; or Trades of the AMC of minimum Rs. 5 crores face value.Note: Outlier trades, if any, will be ignored after recording of suitable justification.


Criteria for identifying similar securities:Similar security should be identified by the following waterfall logic, provided that the maturity date of the security is within the same calendar quarter:i. Same issuer and same type of asset, with maturity date within ± 15 working days of maturity date of security shall be

considered first. If no such instance is available, then Step ii to be followed: Example: For Punjab National Bank CD maturing on March 6, 2013, all secondary market trades of Punjab National Bank CDs

maturing within February 13, 2013 to March 28, 2013 will be considered first.ii. Similar security from a different issuer within the same category (PSU Bank, Private Bank or Financial Institution etc.) and

similar long term credit rating**, with maturity date within ± 15 working days of maturity date of security will be considered. Example: For Punjab National Bank CD maturing on March 6, 2013, all secondary market trades of similar public sector bank CDs maturing within February 13, 2013 to March 28, 2013 will be considered.

** In case of banks CDs -

• Issuer of the Securities having long term rating of AAA and/or AA+ and short term rating of A1+ will be considered as comparable.

• Issuer of the Securities having long term rating of AA and/or AA- and short term rating of A1+ will be considered as comparable.

• Issuer of the Securities having long term rating of A+ and below and short term rating of A1+ will be considered as comparable. For the purpose of determining similar security, the data available on ‘Bloomberg’ will be used as a source for ratings.Further, the classification of the Issuer for similar securities will be into three sectors viz. Banking, Manufacturing and Non-Banking Finance Companies (NBFC). Bank CDs will be compared against bank CDs (within bank CDs, PSU Bank CDs will be compared to PSU Bank CDs and Private / Foreign bank CDs will be compared to Private / Foreign bank CDs), Manufacturing papers will be compared against manufacturing papers and NBFC will be compared against NBFC.Further, for the purpose of identification of similar securities, in case of security embedded with ‘Put and Call’ option, the maturity date of the security will be considered as of ‘put/call day’, whereas in case of security embedded with ‘Put’ or ‘Call’ option, the final maturity date of the security will be considered.Note:Outlier trades, if any, will be ignored after recording suitable justification.If due to the non-availability of traded securities, at the time of the IST, the above mentioned criteria cannot be fulfilled, the ISTwould be done at the previous day’s price/yield.

4 Interest Rate Swap (IRS) In case of IRS contracts, counter parties agree to exchange stream of interest payments on notional value at an agreed date. One party agrees to pay floating and another agrees to pay fixed rate of interest. Floating rate is decided on the basis of a benchmark such as 'Financial Benchmarks India Private Limited (FBIL)' MIBOR/3 Day MIBOR.Valuation of IRS involves valuation of streams of interest payments. The underlying security is valued in the same manner as was valued before entering into IRS contract.Value of IRS contract is the present value of the difference between the fixed and floating interest to be received/paid on maturity of the contract. Floating rate interest till maturity is the interest accrued till the valuation date plus the interest on remaining period at reversal rate.Reversal rate for the day is available on Reuters/Bloomberg for different maturities. The relevant rate is taken on the basis of maturity of the contract. However, if the maturity date falls between the two years, the reversal rate is arrived by interpolation on valuation date.

5 Interest Rate Futures The Exchanges give daily settlement prices in respect of all derivatives positions. These settlement prices shall be used for the purpose of valuation.

6 Bank Fixed Deposits,

CBLO,Reverse Repo

Bank Fixed Deposits and securities which form part of Reverse Repo transaction will be held at Book Cost and Interest accrual will be done separately.

CBLO will be valued at Amortized cost.

Notes:

1. *Public Platform refers to:

F-Trac/ NSE WDM/ BSE WDM/CBRICS ON LINE/ICMD: For corporate bonds / debentures, commercial papers, certificate of deposits and securitized debt. (Applicable only for pricing of IST and not for valuation.

Order of preference for the public platforms for consideration would be as follows:

a. F-Trac (Applicable only for pricing of IST and not for valuation) / CBRICS ONLINE.

b. NSE WDM

c. BSE WDM

2. Weighted average yield shall be rounded up to two digits after decimal point.

3. Weighted average yield will be calculated for non-coupon bearing securities. Weighted average price will be calculated for coupon bearing securities.


C. Other securities:

1 Convertible Debentures The non-convertible and convertible components of convertible debentures and bonds shall be valued separately. The nonconvertible component would be valued on the same basis as would be applicable to a debt instrument. The convertible component shall be valued on the same basis as would be applicable to an equity instrument. If, after conversion the resultant equity instrument would be traded pari passu with an existing instrument, which is traded, the value of later instrument can be adopted after an appropriate discount for the non-tradability of the instrument during the period preceding conversion. While valuing such instruments, the fact whether the conversion is optional will also be factored in.

2 Valuation of Mutual Fund Unit (MFU)/ Valuation of Exchange Traded Fund (ETF)

Listed:MFU and ETF listed and Traded would be valued at the closing price on the exchange as on the valuation date.In case on the valuation date if traded price is not available for listed MFU / ETF, then such MFU / ETF would be valued at applicableNAV of the respective scheme as on the valuation date.Unlisted:Unlisted MFU would be valued at the NAV as on the valuation date.

3 Gold Since physical gold and other permitted instruments linked to gold are denominated in gold tonnage, it will be valued based on the market price of gold in the domestic market and will be marked to market on a daily basis. The market price of gold in the domestic market on any business day would be arrived at as under:

Domestic price of gold = (London Bullion Market Association AM fixing in US$/ounce X conversion factor for converting ounce into kg for 0.995 fineness X rate for US$ into INR) + custom duty for import of gold and other taxes / levies and charges, as applicable + notional premium & fixing that may be charged for delivery of gold to the place where it is stored on behalf of mutual fund.

On any day the LBMA AM fixing or RBI reference rate is not available due to a holiday, then the previous day price is applied for the purpose of calculating the value of gold.

The above valuation is as per SEBI guidelines.

4 Valuation of Units of Overseas Mutual Fund:

Units of Overseas Mutual Fund will be valued at last published Net Asset Value (“NAV”) of underlying Overseas Mutual Fund security.

5 Securities Lending & Borrowing (SLB) Security Lending & Borrowing (SLB) will be valued on the basis of amortization.

D. Conversion of prices in foreign currency to Indian Rupees (‘INR’):

The prices of securities which are denominated in foreign currencies (i.e. ADR/GDR/Offshore securities/units of overseas mutual funds) need to be converted into INR. For conversion, the Bid Rate of foreign currency INR exchange rate available on Reuters at 5.00 p.m. IST would be used.

In case, the Reuters exchange rate is not available, then the following sources will be used for exchange rate in the order of priority:

• Exchange rate (Bid Rate) available on Bloomberg at 5.00 p.m. IST;

• RBI Reference rate as at the close of banking hours on the relevant business day in India;

• Any other publicly available source.

If the Exchange rate is not available in any of the above source then previous day exchange rate would be used.

1. Income from Units

Income received in respect of Mutual Fund referred to in section 10 (23D) of

the Act by the unit holders is exempt from tax in the hands of the unit holders under Section 10 (35) of the Act, given that the scheme is required to pay income distribution tax under section 115R of the Act.

2. Gains from sale or transfer of units

The characterization of gains or losses arising from sale / transfer of units as “capital gains” or “business income” would depend on whether the unit holder holds such units as “capital assets” or as “stock in trade”.

Investors may refer to CBDT instruction no. 1827 dated August 31, 1989 read with CBDT Circular no. 4 dated June 15, 2007 and the CBDT Circular No. 6 dated 29 February 2016 for further guidance on the matter.

With effect from 1 April 2014, any security held by a Foreign Portfolio Investor (“FPI”), invested in accordance with the regulations under the SEBI Act, 1992, will be classified as a capital asset under section 2(14) of the Act.

3. Tax Implications where securities are business assets

Profits and Gains of Business or Profession

If the securities in the portfolio are regarded as a business / trading asset, then any gain / loss arising from sale of such securities would be taxed under the head “Profits and Gains of Business or Profession” under section 28 of the Act. The gain / loss is to be computed after allowing normal business expenses (inclusive of the expenses incurred on transfer).

STT paid on securities held as business assets shall be an allowable deduction while computing business income.

Losses under the head Profits and Gains of Business or Profession

Loss under the head ‘Profits and Gains of Business or Profession’ can be set off against the income from any other source under the same head or income under any other head (subject to certain exceptions) in the same assessment year. If such loss cannot be set off against any other head in the same assessment year, then it will be carried forward and shall be set off against the profits and gains of the business, within the period of 8 subsequent assessment years.

4. Tax implications where units are held as Capital Assets

Holding Period

Unit of a Debt Mutual Fund is treated as a short term capital asset if the unit is held for 36 months or less and considered long term capital asset if it is held for more than 36 months.

Unit of an Equity Oriented Fund is treated as a short term capital asset if the unit is held for 12 months or less and considered long term capital asset if it is held for more than 12 months.

Computation of Capital Gains

The capital gains will be computed by deducting expenditure incurred in connection with such transfer and cost of acquisition (COA) of the unit from the sale consideration.

The following amounts shall be deductible from the full value of consideration, to arrive at the amount of capital gains:

• COA of securities which can also be adjusted for inflation in certain cases1, and

• Expenditure incurred wholly and exclusively in connection with such transfer.

1.1 Summary of tax rates and key implications

1.1.1 Debt Fund/Liquid Fund/Fixed Maturity Plan

Long Term Capital Gains (‘LTCG’)

Type of Investors Rates Indexation availableResident Investor 20% YesNon Resident Investors• FPIs 10% No• Offshore Funds 10% No• Others

- Listed units 20% Yes- Unlisted units 10% No

1 In such cases, the adjustment to the cost is referred to as indexation, as it is based on the cost of inflation index.


In case of individuals / HUFs, being residents, where the total income excluding LTCG is below the maximum amount not chargeable to tax , then the difference between the maximum amount not chargeable to tax and total income excluding LTCG, shall be adjusted from LTCG. Therefore only the balance LTCG will be liable to income tax at the rate of 20 per cent.

For maximum amount not chargeable to tax and applicable tax rates, please refer to note 1.

Finance Act, 2018 has restricted the scope of exemption under section 54EC (which provides exemption from capital gains upon investment of the proceeds in specified bonds) only to LTCG arising from land or building, or both.

Accordingly, LTCG arising on units of Mutual Fund sold after 1 April, 2018 will not get the benefit of section 54EC.

Short Term Capital Gains (‘STCG’)

STCG arising to a unit holder will be taxed at the normal tax rates applicable to that unit holder under the provisions of the Act.

These tax rates are set out in note 1.

The capital gains will be computed by deducting expenditure incurred in connection with such transfer and COA of the unit from the sale consideration.

1.1.2 Equity Oriented Fund

LTCG arising on transfer of units of an equity-oriented fund was exempt from tax under Section 10(38) of the Act. However, this exemption stands withdrawn with effect from 1 April, 2018 as per the Finance Act, 2018 and such gains, if exceeding Rs. 100,000 are to be taxed at the rate of 10 % as per Sec 112A, provided STT has been paid on transfer of the units.

Further, Finance Act, 2018, provides relief in computation of gains on sale of units of an equity oriented fund acquired before 1 February 2018 such that COA of such units is to be considered the higher of

• Actual COA of the units; and

• Lower of

• Fair Market Value (FMV) of the unit; and

• Redemption value / Sale consideration on transfer of the units

The FMV in case of a listed unit, means the highest price of such unit quoted on a recognized stock exchange on 31 January 2018. However, if there is no trading on 31 January 2018, the FMV will be the highest price quoted on a date immediately preceding 31 January 2018, on which it has been traded.

In the case of a unit which is not listed on a recognized stock exchange on 31 January 2018, the net asset value of such unit on 31 January 2018 will be the FMV.

No benefit of inflation indexation will be available for computing the COA.

Under section 112 of the Act, LTCG (which is not subject to STT) is taxable @ 20% (plus applicable surcharge and Health and education cess), with indexation benefit.

In case of individuals / HUFs, being residents, where the total income excluding LTCG is below the maximum amount not chargeable to tax , then the difference between the maximum amount not chargeable to tax and total income excluding LTCG, shall be adjusted from LTCG. Therefore only the balance LTCG will be liable to income tax at the flat rate.

For maximum amount not chargeable to tax and applicable tax rates, please refer to note 1.

Short Term Capital Gains (‘STCG’)

STCG on transfer of units of equity oriented fund is taxable at 15% (plus applicable surcharge and Health and Education cess) if STT has been paid on transfer of the units.

STCG arising on transaction undertaken on a recognized stock exchange located in any International Financial Services Centre and consideration is paid or payable in foreign currency, where STT is not chargeable, will also be taxed at a rate of 15% (plus applicable surcharge and Health and Education cess ). This benefit is available to all tax payers.

In case of individuals / HUFs, being residents, where the total income excluding STCG is below the maximum amount not chargeable to tax , then the difference between the maximum amount not chargeable to tax and total income excluding STCG, shall be adjusted from STCG. Therefore only the balance STCG will be liable to income tax at the rate of 15%.

If STT has not been paid, STCG arising to a unit holder will be taxed at the normal tax rates applicable to that unit holder under the provisions of the Act.

These tax rates are set out in note 1.

1.2 Set-off / Carry Forward of Losses

The capital loss resulting from sale of units would be available for setting off against other capital gains made by the investor and would reduce the tax liability of the investor to that extent.

However, losses on transfer of long term capital assets would be allowed to be set-off only against gains from transfer of long-term capital assets and the balance long-term capital loss may be carried forward separately for a period of 8 assessment years and can be set-off against LTCG only.

Short term capital loss is allowed to be set off against short term / long terms capital gains.

5. Switching between schemes

Switching between plans/options of a scheme will result in redemption of units of the relevant plan/option and reinvestment of the redemption proceeds in the other plan/option selected by the unit holder. Hence, switching will attract the same implications as applicable on transfer of such units.

Section 47(xix) of the Act provides that transfer of units in a consolidating plan of Mutual Fund scheme made in consideration of the allotment of units in the consolidated plan of that scheme is considered tax neutral.

Section 49 read with section 2 (42A) of the Act provides that the cost of acquisition of units of consolidated plan of Mutual Fund scheme shall be cost of units in consolidating plan of Mutual Fund scheme. Period of holding of the units of consolidated plan of Mutual Fund scheme shall include the period for which the units in consolidating plan of Mutual Fund scheme were held by the assessee.

6. Dividend / Bonus Stripping

If any person buys Mutual Fund units (original units) within a period of 3 months prior to date of allotment of bonus units on such original units, and subsequently within nine months, the original units are sold at a loss, then such loss shall be ignored for the purposes of computing income chargeable to tax. However, such loss would be regarded as cost of acquisition for the bonus units.

In cases which do not fall under the aforesaid circumstances, the cost of acquisition of bonus units for the investors would be NIL, as provided by Section 55(2) of the Act

Similarly, if any person buys securities or units within a period of 3 months prior to the date of declaration of dividend and subsequently such securities are sold within 3 months (9 months in case of units) from the date of declaration of dividend, any loss on the purchase / sale transaction up to the amount of dividend shall be ignored for the purposes of computing income chargeable to tax.

7. Tax Deducted At Source (‘TDS’)

7.1 For Resident

No tax is required to be deducted on payments made by Mutual Funds to resident unit holders.

7.2 Non-resident

Section 195 of the Act stipulates every person responsible for making payment to a Non-resident, to deduct tax on such amount, if the same is chargeable to tax in India.

Section 94A(5) of the Act provides that if a person located in a notified jurisdictional area is entitled to receive any sum or income or amount on which tax is deductible at source, tax shall be deducted at the rates as per the Act or rates in force or 30% whichever is higher.

8. Other Provisions:

Double Tax Avoidance Agreement (‘DTAA’)
